The variable is global, surrenderStart, defined in data.c with a default
value on program start of 1. It is set during read-in of the .sysdef
file by sysdefaults.c, which occurs on server start or whenever the
.sysdef file is seen to be modified. "Loading new server configuration"
should appear to ALL when this happens.

I agree. The critical test is in daemonII.c, line 1982, and line 2820.
In both tests both arguments are signed. I see no problem there.

Correct.
